Happy Thursday y’all! It’s Friday Eve and I’m done working for the week. I was up at the gym bright and early this morning to teach class, but really just didn’t feel fantastic. In fact, my head is killing me and I think it’s those darn allergies. I was supposed to sub a class at …

For the Love of Running
Hello and happy National Running Day! If you’re in Houston and like to run, maybe you should take a minute to register for the Chevron Houston Marathon or Aramco Houston Half Marathon! Registration is open today! I plan to be back in running action by then, so I’m signed up for the half this year. …
2015 Disney Princess Half Marathon Recap!
It’s time for a race recap! As a runner, race recaps are very important to me and so much fun for me to write. This one has its ups and downs. This year’s Disney Princess half was my 18th half marathon since I started running races in 2009. It’s also very likely the last race …
Enchanted 10K and Magic Kingdom
I made the executive decision to do biweekly bumpdates instead of every Friday. I don’t want to bore y’all and sometimes things don’t change too much from week to week, but every two weeks I feel like it’s different plus I have more pictures to share and compare! That being said, today needed to be …
Disney Frozen 5K and Animal Kingdom
A week ago, I returned from the most magical place on earth with three of my favorite people. The trip was amazing, exhausting and completely fun! Every year we go, each trip gets better and better. This was my 5th year to tackle the Disney Princess half marathon and I was even supposed to challenge …

Weekend Rewind + Running in Your First Trimester
Is it Wednesday already? Oooops, Monday and Tuesday slipped by me. Mondays completely exhaust me, so apparently instead of writing in my little space, I opted for laying around on the couch after work. And then did the same thing on Tuesday. I’m still waiting for this magical energy that people say comes in the …
2015 Aramco Houston Half Marathon Race Recap
Now that the cats out of the bag, most of you know the real reason why I switched down from the full to the half! And why I wasn’t feeling well and not training properly. I was sick! Constant nausea and lack of food doesn’t make for very good half marathon training runs. In fact, …
Aramco Half Marathon Training Reflection
Last May, I put my name and previous race marathon time into the lottery to test my luck and see if I could once again run the Chevron Houston Marathon. Since I had run it twice before at almost exactly a 4:00 finish time, I was in! As August 1st rolled around, it was officially …
